by ? Pajer
Translation by Karl Maria Kertbeny (1824 - 1882)

Wahl von Pajer
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Hungarian (Magyar) 
Liebst Du mich nicht, Mädchen, dann will 
        Sterben ich,
Und ich weiß, die Englein werden 
        Lieben mich.

Doch ich kann, ich will nicht sterben,
        Liebchen mein;
Ohne Dich wird auch der Himmel
        Leer mir sein!
